The film begins with a curious young pupil noticing things are becoming strange around school and at home. Emotions seem to run high and everything is changing. Could it be hormones? Two students and a school health advisor, pick up the thread taking us on a journey to uncover the myths and reveal facts about puberty, and how to survive it.

The film ends with a standalone section on Transition to secondary school as a new student starts at 'big' school. This section includes interviews with students too.
